GCL-2L body

HIGH RIGIDITY CONSTRUCTION

By using Finite Element Methods ( FEM ), optimal reinforce ribbings are directly cast into the one-piece bed structure. Mechanical rigidity has been increased by more than 30% when compared to conventional designs. The GCL-2 series is capable of performing super heavy-duty turning and maintain long-term super high-precision accuracy.

Built to endure years and years of rigorous high production turning, the heavily ribbed, one-piece thermally balanced bed and casting components are of FC35-Meehanite casting ( industry standard is FC25~30 )
Extra wide hardened and ground box ways are directly formed into the machine bed and saddle during the casting process ( Box way hardness can reach up to HS70° ). They are precision machined and widely spaced for maximum strength. The box way design also provides the rigidity needed for heavy duty and interrupted turning applications.
The low center of gravity heavy-duty bed and 30° slant wedge saddle design provides smooth chip disposal under long working hours.
All spindle and servo motors, including drives, are Fanuc αi series components to ensure peak machining performance and accuracy.
